- More about The Discursive Construction of Migrant Identities
This edited volume explores how migrant identities are created and constructed in discourse both by migrants themselves and by others.
The contributors reveal how migrant identities are discursively constructed by those with lived experiences of mobility and those who view themselves as part of the ‘host’ population. This dual focus responds to a lack of previous research examining migration representation from both perspectives. Readers will discover how the discursive constructions of migrant identities in different domains relate to one another.
The case studies include a broad range of text types from film, government documents and narrative accounts to newspapers and Twitter. They also cover a wide range of contexts including Argentina, Australia, Italy, Romania, and UK, making this is a more comprehensive account of the framing of migration than has been previously accomplished. The chapters all follow the same structure to help the reader learn how to investigate migration discourses using qualitative and quantitative (critical) discourse analytic approaches.
